►760912rc.vrn ConversationsPrabhupada: No, they're thinking that so many people are coming to thecities, how we shall provide them? That's a problem. After allgovernment has to supply them rations. Where is so much foodstuff? Andif they are not supplied, then there will be resentment. That's afact. What they are doing in the city, so many scooter (makes motorsound), going here and there. Actually no engagement. The girls areloitering in the street by dressing. It will become more and moreproblems, city life. So this is the solution, that they must go backto the village. But they are trained up to enjoy the facilities,so-called facilities, of the city. They are not going to village. Butif we can introduce this hari-sankirtana, and if they have littletaste, that is success. It's a great program. And that taste willcome--ceto-darpana-marjanam.

Krsna the questions will be solved automatically. And they will behappy.
